After a little research, I found out where the picture came from and what happened. Dump truck vs. Train

No one hurt

I don't think anyone was hurt in the accident because it was a trailing unit.
as trailing unit behind Dash 9 CN 2599 and SD40 CN 5330 struck a loaded dump truck in Langley BC, 23 December 2002; derailed and cab bady damaged by containers that piled up on top of it
